Former Yankees right fielder Paul O’Neill has worked as an analyst for his former team since 2002.
He had his season opener on Monday acting as the lead analyst for the Yankees-Blue Jays game. He still wasn’t physically present at Yankee Stadium, though. That’s because he is unvaccinated, sources told the New York Post.
The analyst worked from home in Ohio while announcers Michael Kay and David Cone worked from the booth. O’Neill still appeared in a suit and had a Yankees themed background.
During the Yankees’ opening games at home over the last week, O’Neill was not present in the broadcasting booth for YES network.
